Meet Our Vendor: Collisionware

Where does your passion for food come from?

My passion for food started when I was old enough to help in the kitchen. My mom and grandma would bake the best chocolate chip cookies. When I think about going back home and visiting family, I think of food. Where are we going to eat and what are we going to bake.

Tell us about a new product you are working on.

I’m trying to step out of my comfort zone of sewing. I’m working on hand dipped rubber spoons. They’ll be a great add on to an oven mitt or gift set.

What will our fans find at your booth this fall?

Fans will find a large variety of oven mitts, pot holders and baking accessories. Everything to add an adorable edge to their kitchen.

What was your biggest challenge when starting out?

It took a lot of research and testing to figure out the best way to insulate an oven mitt. I wanted it to fit comfortably and protect against extreme heat. It took some trial and error, but I’m very happy and confident with the outcome.

What’s the best part of your job?

Getting to wake up and not commute to a job. Within 5 minutes, I’m in my home studio. Coffee in hand, listening to podcasts and sewing.
